'The Simpsons' (FOX)

Premieres: Sunday, Sept. 30 at 8 p.m. Expect to see: Ex-girlfriends and apocalypses. Bart seeks his lost loves in the season premiere, which gives Natalie Portman, Anne Hathaway, Sarah Michelle Gellar, Sarah Silverman and Zooey Deschanel an excuse to lend their voices. And the exceedingly early (airing Oct. 7) Treehouse of Horror XXIII takes on the god particle and the end of the Mayan Calendar. If we survive that apocalypse, expect a cameo from Justin Beiber next spring. -- Sarah Jersild, Zap2it
